Its  keynote  is  the  song  of  the  lone- 
some pine.  Its  vista  is  the  blue  haze 
of  the  Rockies.  Its  atmosphere  is  the 
bracing  breath  of  balsam. 

Armored  rifle  ranges  under  the 
street,  an  Adirondack  lodge  on  the 
roof,  a  fly-casting  tank  with  running 
water  and  a  camping  department 
showing  complete  equipment  for  every 
phase  of  outdoor  existence. 

The  recognized  American  head- 
quarters for  the  explorer,  the  hunter, 
the  fisherman,  the  golfer,  the  tennis 
player,  the  motorist  and  the  aviator. 


Three  floors  devoted  in  their  entirety  to  the  celebrated  A.  &  F.

■EW  YORK  is  the  world's  hotel  metropolis.  Not  merely  is  it  the 
greatest  city  in  the  western  hemisphere.  Not  merely  is  it  the 
travel  and  trade  center  of  North  America.    It  is  a  vast  human 

Nhive,  throbbing  with  continual  activity  and  industry.  It  is  the 
"meeting  place  of  the  nations, "the  spot  toward  which  all  promi- 
nent Americans  naturally  gravitate,  and  in  which  the  progressive 
representatives  of  other  nations  hope  sometimes  to  find  them- 
selves. It  is  as  cosmopolitan  as  any  of  the  great  capitals  of 
Europe.  It  is  far  more  up  to  date.  And  in  its  ability  to  care 
for  visiting  strangers  it  transcends  all  hitherto  accepted  standards 
of  public  hospitality. 

In  the  number,  the  size,  and  the  quality  of  its  first  class  hotels 
New  York  unquestionably  leads  the  world.  It  has  developed 
hotel  building,  equipment  and  operation  to  a  point  far  beyond 
Old  World  attainments.  It  has  bred  a  race  of  hotel  managers 
wiser  and  more  progressive  than  their  predecessors,  who  fully 
realize  the  increasing  demands  of  our  modern  civilization,  and  who 
have  abundantly  qualified  themselves  for  the  task  of  adequately 
caring  for  the  gigantic  army  of  New  York's  daily  visitors. 
To  attain  the  fore-front  of  eminence  at  the  opening  of  a  hotel  is  possible  to  any 
operating  company  which  is  backed  by  ample  capital,  which  is  competent  to  select 
and  install  the  requisite  equipment,  and  which  is  skilled  in  hotel  management.  But 
to  retain  this  pre-eminence  after  newer  hotels  have  been  opened  is  another  and  a 
more  difificult  proposition.  To  be  independent  of  and  unaffected  by  the  activities 
of  others  is  an  achievement  of  which  any  hotel  and  its  management  may  be  proud, 
and  which  of  itself  is  ample  proof  that  real  excellence  is  continuously  appreciated, 
and  that  capable  supervision  and  skillful  service  are  permanent  assets,  not  to  be 
uprooted  by  mere  newness  or  novelty. 

Such  a  hotel  is  the  Biltmore,  occupying  the  entire  block  bounded  by  Vanderbilt 
and  Madison  Avenues,  43rd  and  44th  Streets.  The  very  central  and  remarkably 
accessible  location  of  the  Biltmore — adjoining  and  connected  with  the  Grand  Central 
Station,  the  42nd  Street  Express  Station  of  the  Subway,  and  its  nearness  to  Fifth 
Avenue,  the  great  central  highway  of  Manhattan — was  a  feature  which  brought  this 
hotel  at  once  and  most  favorably  to  the  attention  of  all  travelers  visiting  New^  York  Cit>'. 

That  the  Biltmore  has  retained  the  favor  with  which  it  was  received,  that  it  has 
built  up  a  satisfied  and  even  enthusiastic  clientele  are  facts  too  well  known  to  be 
successfully  disputed.  That  the  Biltmore  is  constantly  presenting  novelties  and  inno- 
vations for  the  comfort  and  pleasure  of  its  patrons  is  another  fact  that  New  York's 
hotel  visitors  well  know  and  appreciate. 

Until  the  Biltmore's  twenty-six  stories  of  steel,  granite,  limestone,  brick  and  terra 
cotta  were  reared  next  to  the  Grand  Central  Station,  New  York  Cit>-  had  no  really 
great  terminal  hotel.  This  feature  of  itself  would  be  sufficient  to  commend  the  hotel 
to  the  traveling  public,  even  if  the  structure  did  not  contain  any  other  attributes 
entitling  it  to  superiority.

It  is  one  of  the  largest  of  New  York  hotels,  having  a  thousand  rooms,  nine  hundred 
and  fifty  of  which  are  provided  with  private  bath  and  toilet,  and  is  so  arranged  on 
three  sides  of  a  great  open  court  that  every  guest  chamber  is  practically  an  outside 
room,  directly  admitting  light  and  air.  Needless  to  say  that  the  Biltmore  contains 
ever\"  modern  impro\  ement  that  can  add  to  the  comfort  of  its  guests;  and  this  applies 
to  the  guest  rooms  as  well  as  to  the  many  and  spacious  public  apartments  conveniently 
located  throughout  the  building.  Location,  environment  and  accessibility  may  be 
claimed — and  justly  so  in  many  cases — for  a  score  or  more  of  New  York's  modern 
hotels,  but  it  has  remained  for  the  Biltmore  to  develop  the  central  idea  of  real  accessi- 
bilit>-  to  its  highest  possil)le  degree. 

It  is  without  question  the  most  accessible  hotel  in  New  York,  l)eing  located  next 
to  and  connected  directly  with  the  Grand  Central  Station,  into  which  arrive  and  from 
which  depart  the  passenger  trains  of  several  of  the  great  railway  systems  centering  in 
the  metropolis.  To  make  this  physical  connection  even  closer,  passengers  may  step 
from  the  arriving  platform — where  they  leave  incoming  trains — directly  into  a  special 
elevator  which  lands  them  in  the  ofifice  lobby  of  the  hotel.  And,  in  the  case  of  per- 
sonages of  distinction  arriving  at  the  Biltmore,  they  can  be  taken  by  private  elevator 
from  the  train  platform  directly  to  their  private  suite  in  the  hotel  without  coming  in 
contact  with  the  station  crowds,  the  street  trafific,  or  people  in  the  hotel  offices. 

In  its  plan  and  arrangements  the  Biltmore  is  designed  to  afTord  the  largest  amount 
of  comfort  and  convenience  to  its  guests;  luxury  without  ostentation;  safety  that  is 
absolute;  a  culinary  department  without  a  flaw;  and  sanitation  of  the  highest  order. 
In  the  accomplishment  of  these  objects  every  conceivable  hotel  improvement  of  a 
mechanical  nature  has  been  installed.  In  addition  to  the  usual  equipment  of  local 
and  long  distance  telephones,  electric  light  and  steam  heating  from  central  plants, 
every  approved  electrical  device  that  would  tend  to  add  to  the  comfort  of  the  guests 
has  been  provided.  There  are  a  complete  telautograph  system,  dictograph  system, 
separate  inter-communicating  telephone  system  connecting  the  operating  portions  of 
the  hotel,  pneumatic  tubes,  vacuum  cleaner  system,  and  many  other  modern  im-

provcnients.  There  has  even  been  installed  a  Permutit  system  for  softening  all  the 
Avater  used,  the  Biltmore  being  the  first  hotel  in  America  to  l)c  equipped  with  this 
system,  which  is  Avidely  used  in  Germany,  where  it  originated,  throughout  Europe  and 
in  other  parts  of  the  world. 

Contiguity  to  the  Grand  Central  Terminal  is  not  the  sole  feature  of  A  alue  in  the 
location  of  the  Biltmore.  This  new  hotel  is  but  one  block  east  of  Fifth  A\  enue,  New 
York's  great  central  artery  of  trade  and  traffic;  and  but  one  block  north  of  42nd 
Street,  the  city's  busiest  cross-town  thoroughfare.  The  Grand  Central  Station  of 
New  York's  underground  railway  system  is  at  42nd  Street  and  \"anderbilt  i\venue, 
one  block  from  the  hotel,  and  even  this  distance,  short  as  it  is,  need  not  be  traversed  in 
the  open,  since  the  passageways  that  unite  the  hotel  with  the  railway  terminal  also 
connect  it  with  the  city's  subways. 

On  the  street  level  there  are  three  entrances  to  the  Biltmore,  the  principal  one 
l)eing  located  on  the  43rd  Street  side,  and  the  other  two  on  \"anderbilt  Avenue. 
Entering  from  43rd  Street,  one  steps  into  a  broad  vestibule  with  marble  walls  and 
vaulted  ceiling,  from  which  a  short  flight  of  marble  stairs  leads  up  to  the  main  elevator 
hall  and  the  hotel  lobby.  From  the  lobby  a  broad  corridor,  running  north  and  south, 
connects  the  two  wings  of  the  building  and  gives  access  to  the  palm  court  and 
the  main  dining  room.  From  the  vestibule  short  flights  of  steps  to  left  and  right 
descend  to  the  rooms  immediately  below  the  main  floor.  Of  the  two  entrances  on 
Vanderbilt  Avenue,  the  one  nearest  43rd  Street  is  on  the  south  or  men's  side  of  the 
hotel  and  opens  into  the  office  lobby;  the  other,  on  the  north  or  women's  side,  leads 
directh'  to  the  special  rooms  that  have  been  pro\  ided  for  their  comfort.  On  the  main 
or  office  floor  are  located  the  men's  cafe,  in  the  southwest  corner,  with  windows  on 
43rd  Street  and  Madison  Avenue,  the  main  dining  room  occupying  all  the  remainder 
of  the  Madison  Avenue  front  to  44th  Street;  the  palm  court  is  in  the  center  of  the 
structure,  immediately  in  front  of  the  entrance  to  the  dining  room.  The  floor  level 
of  the  dining  room  and  men's  cafe  is  a  few  steps  above  that  of  the  main  floor.  Mez- 
zanines surround  the  men's  and  women's  sections  of  the  main  floor,  in  that  upon  the 
men's  side  being  located  a  Avriting  room  for  their  use.  On  the  women's  side  the  mez- 
zanine floor  contains  writing  and  hair  dressing  rooms.  The  women's  reception  room, 
toilet  room,  cloak  room,  etc.,  are  all  reached  directh"  from  the  \'anderbilt  Avenue 
entrance  to  the  women's  section. 


The  decorative  treatment,  the  materials,  the  finish  and  the  fittings  of  the  first  floor 
are  simple  and  dignified,  but  of  the  highest  artistic  order.  Marble  is  used  exclusively 
for  the  floors  and  walls,  the  latter  being  plainly  and  simply  paneled  and  without 
ornamentation.  The  metal  fittings  are  bronze  of  artistic  patterns.  The  ceilings 
are  beamed,  paneled  in  low  relief  designs,  and  painted  in  subdued  tones  that  har- 
monize with  the  natural  tints  of  the  marble  walls  and  floor.  Marble  is  also  used  for 
the  walls  of  the  palm  court  and  the  dining  room,  the  former  being  severely  plain  and 
the  latter  paneled  in  plain  marble  with  pilasters  of  variegated  tints.  The  dining  room 
is  a  spacious  and  lofty  apartment  in  modern  Italian  Renaissance  style,  with  a  won- 
derful cameo  ceiling  in  gold  and  white,  bearing  classical  figures  and  decorations  in  low 
relief.  The  window  draperies  are  in  a  subdued  shade  of  red,  the  furniture  of  dark  oak 
with  upholstery  in  two  shades  of  red  to  harmonize  with  the  window  hangings  and  the 
similar  toned  carpeting.  Three  large  prismatic  glass  electroliers  are  suspended  from 
the  ceiling.  There  is  a  musicians'  gallery  at  the  south  end  of  the  room  with  an  orna- 
mental bronze  railing.  The  palm  court  is  decorated  with  a  profusion  of  potted  palms 
and  ferns,  and  the  furniture,  of  dainty  rustic  pattern,  is  painted  green  to  harmonize 
with  the  tints  of  the  foliage. 

Descending  the  steps  to  the  left  from  the  43rd  Street  vestibule,  one  reaches  the 
grill  room  and  the  corridor  that  leads  to  the  men's  bar  and  the  men's  club  room. 
Elizabethan  style  with  dark  paneled  walls  and  pilasters  up  to  the  ceiling,  and  with 
marble  and  wood  floors,  is  the  decorative  treatment  of  the  men's  cafe,  the  grill  room, 
the  bar  and  the  men's  club  room.  The  library,  on  the  second  floor,  is  also  carried  out 
in  Elizabethan  style.  The  Georgian  order  of  interior  decoration  is  used  throughout 
the  women's  section. 

The  fourth  floor  of  the  hotel  is  devoted  to  private  dining  rooms,  of  which  there  are 
a  number  of  varying  capacities,  and  a  special  suite  for  entertaining  purposes.  This 
suite  consists  of  a  parlor,  reception  room,  dining  room,  foyer,  bedrooms  and  dressing 
rooms,  and  a  small  ballroom  that  will  accommodate  three  hundred  people,  to  which 
special  serving  rooms  arc  attached. 

On  the  twenty-second  floor  is  located  the  banquet  and  ballroom,  which  has  a  seat- 
ing capacit}'  of  about  six  hundred  people,  being  one  of  the  largest  rooms  in  New  York 
devoted  to  these  purposes.  It  is  decorated  in  Louis  XI\'.  st>  le  of  somewhat  formal 
cliaracter,  with  arched  windows  and  ornamental  bak-onies.  The  general  color  scheme 
is  blue  and  gold  with  window  draperies  in  blue.  The  ballroom  is  entirely-  free  from 
columns  and  has  wide  and  lofty  windows  on  three  sides.  Thes(>  windows  ma>-  be 
fully  opened,  so  that  in  the  summer  time  the  room  can  be  conwrted  into  a  great  unob- 


structed  roof  garden  restaurant  of  the  highest  type,  rainy  weather  placing  no  restric- 
tions upon  its  use,  as  it  is  entirely  covered  and  protected  above  by  the  upper  stories  of 
the  structure.  Adjoining  this  ballroom  are  spacious  and  attractive  parlors,  a  large 
supper  room  that  ma\-  be  utilized  as  a  foyer,  and  a  special  kitchen  provided  with  a 
serving  pantry.  On  the  north  wing  of  this  floor,  opposite  the  ballroom,  is  located  an 
emergency'  hospital,  which  is  completely  equipped  according  to  modern  standards. 

At  the  level  of  the  si.xth  floor,  in  the  center  of  the  building  and  between  the  north 
and  south  wings,  has  been  constructed  a  large  and  exquisitely  arranged  roof  garden 
which  carries  a  profusion  of  palms,  ferns,  flowers  and  shrubbery  in  formal  plots  with 
paths  between,  and  with  a  centrally  placed  ornamental  fountain.  This  is  maintained 
for  the  pleasure  and  comfort  of  guests  who  wish  to  dine  out  of  doors,  to  indulge  in 
afternoon  teas,  and  to  enjoy  their  leisure  in  the  open  air.  It  extends  to  the  V^ander- 
bilt  Avenue  front  of  the  structure  and  is  fully  protected  by  the  upper  stories  of  the 
hotel  from  late  afternoon  sunlight.  Along  the  entire  front  of  this  roof  garden  has 
been  erected  a  broad  and  inviting  pergola,  with  ornamental  columns,  and  with  many 
secluded  nooks  and  vine-embowered  corners.  This  roof  garden  is  of  a  most  unusual 
type,  being  very  spacious,  and  having,  with  its  walks,  its  flower  beds,  its  shrubbery, 
its  fountain,  its  evergreen  trees  and  its  trailing  vines,  the  exact  aspect  of  a  formal 
garden  in  a  fine  private  estate. 

Below  the  street  level  there  is  a  completely  equipped  Turkish  bath  establishment 
with  large  swimming  pool  and  all  modern  conveniences.  The  equipment  of  this  bath 
establishment  is  such  as  to  enable  it  to  give  medicinal  baths  and  modern  hydriatric 
treatment  with  the  most  approved  apparatus  and  thoroughly  competent  attendants. 

In  the  location  and  arrangements  of  its  culinary  departments  the  Biltmore  has  set 
a  new  standard  for  New  York  hotels.    The  kitchen  which  serves  the  main  dining  room

and  the  men's  cafe  is  situated  a  sliort  story  above  these  floors,  giving  for  the  first  time 
in  this  city  a  hotel  dining  room  kitchen  with  abundance  of  direct.outside  Hght  and  air, 
instead  of  relegating  this  most  essential  feature  of  hotel  operation  to  the  liasemcnt 
regions,  which  has  been  the  custom  in  the  past. 

On  the  floor  above  the  main  kitchen  are  located  the  general  refrigerator  storage 
boxes,  which  are  so  large  and  capacious  that  the  hotel  is  enabled  to  carry  supplies  of 
meats  and  vegetables  for  months  in  advance  of  immediate  needs,  in  this  way  being 
practically  independent  of  the  usual  cold  storage  warehouses  which  take  care  of  simi- 
lar needs  for  the  average  hotel. 

The  fact  should  also  be  noted  that  every  dining  room  in  the  building  has  outside 
light  and  air,  and  the  grill  room,  cafe,  bars,  etc.,  are  all  above  the  street  level,  in  no 
case  being  basement  rooms. 

There  are  nine  passenger  elevators,  four  being  l(K'ated  at  each  end  of  the  nortli  and 
south  corridors,  and  running  to  every  floor,  with  an  additional  one  on  the  north  side 
which  is  the  private  elevator  running  from  the  track  level  of  the  incoming  railway 
station  to  the  private  suite  and  private  dining  room  floor.  These  elevators  are  most 
conveniently  located,  and  the  entrance  halls  on  each  of  the  upper  floors  are  cut  ofif 
from  the  corridors  by  glass  doors,  which  arrangement  prevents  all  noises  from  the 
operating  machinery  reaching  and  disturbing  guests  in  their  rooms.  There  are  six 
freight  elevators — for  convenience  in  transferring  baggage — in  various  parts  of  the 
hotel.  In  the  matter  of  travelers'  baggage  it  is  important  to  note  that  the  railroads 
deliver  this  direct  to  the  hotel  and  receive  it  from  the  hotel,  without  trouble,  expense 
or  delay  to  the  owner.  There  are  sixteen  dumbwaiters — for  service  purposes  to  upper 
floors — ^conveniently  placed  about  the  structure.

The  upper  portion  of  the  hotel  contains  a  thousand  rooms,  as  has  been  pre\  iously 
stated,  and  no  less  than  nine  hundred  and  fifty  of  these  have  private  i)ath  and  toilet 
attached.  These  rooms  are  of  ample  size  to  provide  the  fullest  comfort,  and  are 
simply  and  substantialh" — but  most  excellentl>- — fitted  up  and  furnished  in  English 
style.  The  walls  are  paneled  and  {tainted.  No  wall  paper  of  any  kind  is  used  in  an}- 
part  of  the  hotel.  The  floors  are  of  hardwood  with  marble  bases  for  the  walls.  The 
same  floor  and  wall  treatment  has  been  given  to  all  the  upper  halls  and  corridors. 

Besides  the  many  elevators  the  building  is  provided  with  six  continuous  staircases 
which  lead  from  the  roof  to  the  street  level.  Two  of  these  are  enclosed  in  brick  fire 
towers,  built  in  connection  with  and  adjoining  the  elevator  halls.  No  single  feature 
that  could  provide  greater  security  against  fire  was  overlooked  or  omitted  in  the  con- 
struction of  the  Bilfmore,  and  as  a  result  of  this  thoroughness  the  Board  of  Fire 
Underwriters  quoted  for  this  hotel  the  minimum  insurance  rate,  which  is  lower  than 
that  received  by  any  other  hotel  in  New  York. 

The  Permutit  system,  of  which  the  Biltmore  has  the  first  hotel  installation  in 
America,  is  a  natural  method  of  softening  water  by  filtration  invented  by  the  eminent 
chemist,  Dr.  Robert  Gans  of  Berlin,  Germany.  It  adds  nothing  to  the  water,  and 
removes  from  it  all  mineral  salts  that  cause  hardness  and  make  ordinary  waters  un- 
satisfactory- and  disagreeable  in  the  bath  and  toilet,  or  for  laundering  and  culinary 
purposes.  Permutized  water  is  matchless  for  the  complexion  and  is  absolutely 
hygienic  for  all  purposes.  The  Biltmore  employs  this  water  in  all  its  departments, 
including  the  boilers  of  its  steam  plant  for  generating  power,  light  and  heat.  The 
advantage  of  having  an  unfailing  supply  of  water  of  uniform  softness  and  great  purity 
is  very  noticeable  in  every  way  in  which  water  is  used — whether  for  drinking,  in  the 
bath,  in  cooking,  or  in  the  superior  appearance  of  freshly  laundered  linen. 


A  GROUP  OF  SPRINTERS  TOPPING  THE  HIGH  HURDLL> 


()ulsi(k'  light  and  air  arc  proN  ided  for  every  n^oni  in  the  hotel,  including  all  the 
guest  chambers  and  the  ser\  ants'  (jiiarters.  There  are  no  so-called  "court  rooms." 
As  car  lines  and  general  street  traffic  pass  the  hotel  on  practically  one  side  only — 
Madison  Avenue — quietness  to  a  remarkable  degree  is  afforded  all  guests,  such  as  can 
be  secured  in  almost  no  other  centrally  located  hotel  in  New  York. 

The  Biltmore,  with  its  grand  ballroom,  its  reception  halls,  its  splendid  restaurant 
and  palm  court,  its  private  dining  rooms,  its  grill  room  and  cafe,  is  perfectly  adapted 
for  indoor  entertaining,  and  high  class  social  functions  of  every  kind  and  character 
succeed  each  other  at  very  brief  intervals  during  the  months  of  autumn,  winter  and 
spring.  Special  events  take  place  during  the  holiday  season,  which  reaches  its  climax 
with  elaborate  midnight  dinners  and  festivities  of  New  Year's  Eve. 

During  the  summer  months,  when  outdoor  life  is  preferable  to  that  indoors,  a 
somewhat  different  plan  is  pursued.  It  is  then  that  the  pergola  roof  garden  at  the 
level  of  the  sixth  floor  blossoms  forth  in  all  its  beauty,  and  outdoor  dinners,  luncheons 
and  afternoon  teas  are  enjoyed  amid  exquisite  environment  and  sylvan  surroundings. 
The  roar  of  the  city  streets  comes  faintly — if  at  all — to  one's  ears  and  it  is  easy  to 
imagine  oneself  to  be  in  the  garden  of  some  country  mansion  instead  of  atop  a  city  hotel. 

Even  more  than  this  has  been  done  for  the  summer  visitor  at  the  Biltmore.  On 
the  twenty-second  floor  of  the  hotel,  which,  it  will  be  remembered,  is  the  ballroom 
floor,  there  was  created  during  the  summer  of  1914 — and  created  is  the  proper  word  to

NIGHT  SCENE  AT  THE  BILTMORE'S  ROOF  GARDEN  SKATING  RINK 


describe  the  marvelous  transformation  that  was  then  accomplished — the  most  unique 
and  altogether  entrancing  apartment  for  public  dining  and  dancing  to  be  found  any- 
where in  the  city.  The  grand  ballroom,  with  its  adjacent  foyer,  small  parlors,  toilet 
rooms,  etc.,  was  given  over  to  summer  dining  and  dancing,  and  the  ballroom  itself 
was  so  transformed  as  entirely  to  lose  its  identity. 

It  was  called  the  "Cascades,"  a  name  reminiscent  of  bosky  dells,  of  rippling  rills, 
of  the  mellow  tinkle  of  falling  water,  of  cool  retreats  in  umbrageous  depths.  The 
reason  for  this  selection  was  not  immediately  apparent  as  you  entered  the  wide  double 
doorway,  though  the  tout  ensemble  was  perfect.  The  ceiling,  painted  in  blue  with 
fleecy  white  clouds  apparently  drifting  about,  perfectly  simulated  the  open  sky.  The 
walls,  draped  with  hangings  in  broad  white  stripes,  paneled  with  narrow  blue  ones, 
and  between  each  pair  of  blue  stripes  a  broad,  blue-bordered  panel  ornamented  with 
brilliant  birds  and  verdant  foliage,  the  whole  of  this  drapery  so  hung  as  to  make  the 
interior  seem  a  huge  tent  with  a  broad  flat  top  entirely  open  to  the  sky^ — this  is  the 
picture  that  first  greeted  the  eye.  The  blue  and  gold  pillars  of  the  balcony  so  blended 
into  this  picture  that  they  seemed  to  be  the  tent  poles  for  this  great  canopy.  High 
up,  all  around  the  room,  ran  festoons  of  roses,  around  and  among  which  were  hung 
Jajianese  lanterns  of  brilliant  colors.  The  balcony  railing  was  hidden  b\'  trailing 
vines  and  palm  fronds,  and  made  still  more  beautiful  by  masses  of  wisteria,  roses, 
carnations,  sweet  peas  and  other  blossoms.  Beneath  the  balcony  rail,  surrounded  by 
ferns  and  greenery,  hung  caged  canaries,  and  these  feathered  songsters  chimed  in 
most  agreeably  with  the  orchestral  music.  The  three  great  chandeliers,  even,  lost 
their  wonted  character,  being  draped  and  covered  with  bright-colored  fabrics,  through 
which  the  electric  illumination  was  diffused  in  myriad  hues.    The  lanterns  along  the

an  immense  glorified  banqueting  tent  in  which  the  formal  character  of  an  enclosed 
apartment  was  entirely  lost.  The  small  round  tables,  with  their  snowy  damask,  their 
glistening  glass  and  silver,  the  chairs  with  their  cool  summer  coverings,  completed  the 
ensemble,  and  made  the  whole  aspect  as  charming  a  one  as  could  be  desired. 

At  the  eastern  end  of  the  room  had  been  constructed  a  three-tiered,  oval-fronted 
musicians'  platform,  the  tier  railings  hidden  by  masses  of  roses,  carnations  and  sweet 
peas,  with  tete-a-tete  tables  on  the  two  lower  tiers,  the  upper  tier  being  reserved  for 
the  orchestra.  In  the  center  of  the  upper  tier,  directly  against  the  east  wall,  a  gigan- 
tic figure  of  Neptune  stood  in  a  conch  shell.  Concealed  electric  lights  brought  out 
this  snow-white  figure  in  bold  relief,  about  which  rose  flashing  jets  of  water  that  fell 
back  sparkling  into  the  shell  at  his  feet.  This  shell  overflowed  into  a  brooklet,  bor- 
dered with  ferns  and  flowers,  forming  a  miniature  waterfall.  The  pool  below  this  fall 
overflowed  into  another  on  the  second  tier,  and  so  on  down  to  the  floor  level,  where 
there  was  a  circular,  vine-embowered  pool  in  which  goldfish  sported.  Here  were  the 
"Cascades,"  imparting  a  veritable  touch  of  nature  that  gave  reality  to  what  would 
otherwise  have  been  wholly  make-believe. 

Two  complete  orchestras  were  in  attendance,  and  these  provided  continuous 
music,  both  for  dining  and  dancing.    The  dinner  service  was  entirely  a  la  carte. 

So  popular  was  the  "Cascades"  in  its  first  season  (1914)  that  it  became  necessary 
to  fit  up  the  foyer  and  the  larger  parlors — which  are  upon  the  same  floor  level — as 
overflow  rooms,  and  the  foyer  was  transformed  into  the  "Fountain  Room,"  so-called 
because  of  ornamental  fountains  installed  at  each  end.  A  special  Venetian  orchestra 
played  in  this  room  during  the  dinner  hours,  and  guests  here  were  likewise  privileged 
to  remain  for  the  dancing. 


JUST  BEFORE  STARTING  THE  HOUNDS  AT  A  HUNT  MEET 


FOLLOWING  THE  BALL  IN  A  FAST  GAME  OF  POLO 


The  new  supper  room  of  the  Biltmore,  which  occupies  the  northeastern  corner 
of  the  building,  on  the  main  floor,  and  faces  Vanderbilt  Avenue,  is  a  recent  innovation 
in  this  hotel,  having  been  in  use  only  about  four  or  five  months.  It  is  very  spacious  in 
its  dimensions,  being  some  sixty-eight  feet  in  width  by  eighty-nine  in  length,  and 
ha\'ing  ample  seating  capacity  for  four  hundred  and  fifty  persons.  Its  great  con- 
venience of  location  and  ready  accessibility  from  all  sides  has  made  it  very  popular, 
and  it  is  considered  one  of  the  most  comfortable  and  "usable"  rooms  of  its  kind  in 
New  York. 

The  type  of  decoration  adopted  for  this  supper  room  is  generally  that  of  the  Adam 
period,  but  the  characteristic  severity  and  plainness  of  this  treatment  has  been  modi- 
fied here  and  there  by  touches  of  Pompeiian  and  Louis  XVI.,  so  that  it  will  harmonize 
more  closely  with  the  palm  court  and  the  main  restaurant,  which  it  immediately 
adjoins.  The  walls  are  in  solid  paneled  American  walnut  with  decorations  in  blue  and 
gold  relief.  The  ceiling  is  Italian  "gesso"  work  in  geometrical  patterns,  and  the  colors 
used  here  are  cream  and  gold. 

Around  the  room  and  against  the  wall  have  been  placed  upholstered  lounges  and 
ottomans,  before  which  are  set  the  dining  tables.  These  are  of  varied  designs,  each  in 
keeping  with  the  materials  employed  in  its  upholstery,  and  the  effect  of  this  installa- 
tion is  to  take  away  much  of  the  sameness  of  aspect  found  in  most  dining  rooms,  and 
to  give  this  room  an  air  of  elegance  and  luxuriousness  generally  lacking  in  apartments 
of  this  kind.  The  dining  chairs,  of  solid  walnut  with  just  a  touch  of  hand  carving,  are 
u])holstered  in  blue  and  gold  brocade  to  match  the  walls  and  lounges. 

The  carpeting  is  in  a  special  design  of  heavy  Moquette  and — to  meet  the  present 
popular  demand  for  supper  dancing — it  was  made  and  laid  in  two  pieces.  The  center 
is  entirely  separate  from  the  surrounding  portion,  and  may  be  taken  up  and  removed 
in  five  minutes,  leaving  a  perfect  dancing  floor  in  its  place.  Music  there  is,  of  course, 
with  an  excellent  orchestra  which  plays  both  classical  pieces  and  all  the  popular  dance 
music  of  the  da>-.  Professional  dancers  of  skill  and  reputation  appear  here  ever>- 
evening,  and  jiatrons  are  afforded  every  facility  to  participate  in  this  popular  pastime. 
Nowhere  in  New  York  is  there  to  be  found  a  room  where  supper  and  dinner  dances  can 
be  held  under  finer  conditions  or  among  more  attractive  surroundings.

Thinking  of  Boston? 

— Then  you  Should  know  about  the  Hotel  Puritan,  on  Commonwealth  Avenue,  Boston,  near  the 
Massachusetts  Avenue  Subway  Station  which  is  lour  minutes  from  shops  and  theatres.  The 
corner  of  Commonwealth  and  Massachusetts  Avenues  is  the  meeting  spot  of  motor  roads 
entering  and  leaving  Boston. 

Good  Garages  Near  By 

The  Puritan  in  equipment  and  atmosphere  is  unique.  Xo  other  public  house  so  much  resembles 
a  private  home.  Globe  trotters  are  good  enough  to  say  that  this  Distinctive  Boston  House  is 
one  of  the  most  homelike  and  attractive  hotels  in  the  world. 

Prices  for  both  transient  and  permanent  guests  are  wholly  reasonable.  Quarters  of  any 
size  may  be  had.    There  are  many  private  sitting  rooms. 

I  will  take  pride  and  pleasure  in  sending  to  you  the  facts  about  the  Puritan.    Ask  me 

to  do  so.  •  I  r. 

We  have  an  illustrated  booklet  of  the  hotel  with  guide  to  Boston  and  its  historic  vicinity. 
Also  for  Motorists  a  little  book  of  "Thirty  Motor  Runs  .Around  Boston."  Luggage  sent  ahead 
will  be  unpacked  and  put  in  order  if  desired.

HOTEL  MANHATTAN 


lONVENIENCE  of  location  may  be  assured  to  a  hotel  before  its  foundations 
begun.    Splendor  of  architecture,  elegance  of  appointments,  and 


W         .  completeness  of  equipment  may  be  inbuilt  into  the  structure  as  it  rises. 

But  prestige,  an  exclusive  quality  in  its  clientele,  must  be  acquired  after 
the  edifice  has  been  completed  and  thrown  open  to  the  public. 

As  to  its  location,  no  hotel  is  more  conveniently  placed  in  the  greater  city  than 
the  Manhattan.  It  is  but  one  block  from  the  Grand  Central  railway  station,  has 
an  entrance  in  the  hotel  to  the  New  York  Subway  system,  and  is  but  a  half-block 
from  Fifth  Avenue  at  its  intersection  with  Forty-second  Street,  the  busiest  traffic 
corner  in  the  city.  It  is  in  the  center  of  the  new  shopping  district,  and  within  easy 
access  to  all  the  principal  theatres,  clubs,  art  galleries  and  places  of  amusement. 
Surface  cars  pass  it  on  both  the  Madison  Avenue  and  Forty-second  Street  fronts. 

In  its  architectural  construction  and  arrangement,  its  interior  decorations  and 
furnishings,  its  convenient  location  and  excellent  management,  the  Hotel  Manhattan 
is  unsurpassed  by  any  other  of  its  kind  in  the  American  metropolis.  All  private  rooms 
have  large  windows  opening  directly  to  outside  light  and  air,  all  bathrooms  have 
outside  ventilation,  and  the  utmost  comfort  is  assured  to  guests  at  all  seasons. 

The  public  apartments  of  the  Hotel  Manhattan  are  spacious  in  size,  rich  in 
decorations  and  sumptuous  in  their  furnishings.  The  main  entrance  from  Forty- 
second  Street  opens  directly  into  the  grand  rotunda,  which  is  the  general  meeting 
place  for  all  guests.  Here  the  style  of  decoration  is  Italian  Renaissance,  soft  gray 
Italian  marbles  with  Tiffany  glass  mosaics  and  an  arched  skylight  of  Tiffany  glass. 
Above  the  marble  wainscoting  is  a  mural  decoration  in  oil,  forming  a  superb  frieze 
six  feet  high  and  sixty  feet  long,  the  subject  being  the  "Triumph  of  Manhattan." 


THE  NORTH  RESTAURANT,  ()i<  I  LI-.MlsM  ROOM,  WllR  ll  IS  LOC  AJEl)  ON  THE  FORT^-TIIIRO 

STREET  SIDE  OF  THE  HOTEL 

Leading  from  the  rotunda  are  numerous  other  public  apartments  for  various 
purposes,  all  readily  accessible.  Among  these  are  the  north  and  south  restaurants, 
the  palm  court  or  tea  room,  ladies'  reception  room,  writing  rooms,  etc.  On  a 
mezzanine  floor  at  one  side  is  the  musicians'  gallery. 

The  south  restaurant,  on  the  Forty-second  Street  side  of  the  hotel,  is  finished 
in  modern  French  style,  with  woodwork  of  antique  oak,  and  a  panelled  ceiling 
of  the  same  wood,  the  latter  picked  out  with  gold  relief  decorations. 

The  Forty-third  Street  restaurant,  which  is  on  the  north  side  of  the  hotel,  is 
finished  throughout  in  Flemish  oak,  with  a  high  wainscoting,  artistically  inlaid  with 
other  woods.  The  main  panels  are  handsomely  carved  and  carry  a  series  of  paintings, 
the  subjects  of  which  are  figures,  flowers  and  fruits. 

The  palm  court  or  tea  room,  wainscoted  with  Breccia  marble,  with  pilasters 
running  up  to  the  ceiling  and  ornamented  at  their  tops  with  gold,  connects  the  rotunda 
with  the  north  restaurant.    In  the  ceiling  is  a  large  circular  dome  of  Tiffany  glass. 

The  foyer,  or  main  parlor,  in  Louis  XVL  style,  resplendent  in  Vernis  Martin 
and  gold,  with  wall  panels  and  hangings  in  Rose  de  Pompadour,  is  one  of  the  very 
richest  of  all  rooms  in  the  hotel  devoted  to  public  purposes.  In  the  triple-arched 
opening  which  separates  one  portion  of  this  room  from  another,  is  a  series  of  wall 
{paintings.  The  music  room,  with  its  walls  hung  with  soft  shades  of  silk  tapestry, 
(jpens  out  of  the  main  parlor. 

The  banquet  room,  which  also  opens  out  of  the  foyer,  is  decorated  entirely  in 
the  rich  and  simple  Adam  style.  In  the  walls  are  dull  gold  frames  containing  a 
series  of  historical  portraits  of  English  and  French  ladies  in  court  costumes. 

The  cafe  is  reached  directly  from  the  street,  and  also  from  the  rotinula  by  a 
marble  stairway.  It  is  furnished  in  maple  in  natural  color,  with  a  landscape  frieze 
above  the  wainscoting.  Adjoining  the  cafe  are  the  Dutch  room,  bar,  barber  shop, 
brokers'  offices,  etc.

HOTEL  COMMODORE 

THE  words  "mammoth"  and  "palatial"  have  been  employed  in  the  de- 
scriptions of  so  many  of  the  latest  additions  to  New  York's  already  immense 
list  of  great  modern  hotels  that  they  have  ceased  to  retain  any  significance. 
When  a  really  greater  and  grander  New  York  hotel  makes  its  appearance, 
therefore,  more  comprehensive  descriptive  adjectives  must  be  employed. 

In  speaking  of  the  new  Hotel  Commodore,  now  being  constructed  on  the  corner 
of  Lexington  Avenue  and  Forty-second  Street,  New  York  City,  it  is  no  exaggeration 
to  term  it  "colossal"  and  "magnificent."  Its  ground  plan  is  of  vast  size,  occup>  ing 
the  entire  block  surrounded  by  Lexington  Avenue,  Forty-second  and  Forty-third 
Streets  and  Depew  Place,  and  it  will  rise  to  a  height  of  twenty-six  stories.  There 
will  be  twelve  hundred  guest  chambers,  each  with  private  bath  attached. 

The  location  of  the  Hotel  Commodore  may  be  considered  most  desirable  and 
convenient,  even  when  compared  with  those  of  other  first  class  hotels  in  its  immediate 
vicinity.  It  will  be  directly  connected  on  several  levels  with  the  Grand  Central 
railway  station,  so  that  both  incoming  and  outgoing  travelers  will  experience  neither 
trouble  or  delay  in  entering  or  leaving  it,  and  will  not  need  to  go  out  of  doors,  e\  en 
to  cross  the  street.  Baggage  will  be  delivered  to  the  hotel  by  the  railroad  companies, 
and  departing  guests  can  have  trunks  checked  from  hotel  rooms  to  destinations. 

Trolley  cars  pass  the  hotel's  site  on  both  the  Forty-second  Street  and  Lexington 
Avenue  fronts,  and  on  Forty-second  Street  in  front  of  the  hotel  are  Elevated  railway 
and  Subway  lines.  Taxicab  service  and  automobile  facilities  will  be  more  than 
ordinarily  adequate. 

To  its  splendid  location  and  unrivalled  accessibility  the  Hotel  Commodore 
will  add  every  comfort-bringing  and  convenience-securing  feature  that  genius  has 
designed  and  human  skill  has  created.  The  management,  of  the  highest  capability, 
and  experienced  in  the  operation  of  some  of  the  very  best  and  most  favorably'  known 
of  New  York  hotels  during  many  years,  has  had  from  the  very  beginning  of  the  con- 
struction of  the  building,  full  control  over  its  every  arrangement  and  detail,  and  has 
been  given  carte  blanche  in  the  selection  of  its  furnishings  and  equipment. 

The  result  will  be  the  production  of  a  metropolitan  hotel  in  the  description  of 
which  no  adjective  can  be  considered  an  exaggeration.  Its  main  lobby  will  be  an 
apartment  of  great  area  and  loftiness,  superlatively  decorated  and  furnished.  Its 
restaurants  and  cafes  will  be  the  largest  and  handsomest  in  the  city.  It  will  have  the 
largest  ballroom  in  the  world,  with  two  tiers  of  private  boxes,  available  for  both 
entertainments  and  banquets.  For  balls  and  entertainments  there  will  be  seating 
capacity  for  three  thousand,  while  fully  two  thousand  can  be  accommodated  at 
banquets. 

The  parlors,  the  reception  rooms,  the  restaurants,  cafes,  writing  rooms,  reading 
rooms,  and  all  other  public  service  rooms,  will  be  unusually  large  of  their  t\'pes, 
and  will  be  equipped  with  the  very  latest  and  most  appro\'ed  modern  devices. 

The  construction  of  the  Hotel  Commodore  on  its  upper  floors — in  the  form  of  a 
broad  open  "U" — is  such  that  every  one  of  its  great  number  of  guest  chambers 
will  be  an  outside  room.  There  will  be  no  rooms  opening  upon  "courts"  or  "air 
shafts."  Every  room  will  have  private  bath  and  toilet  attached,  and  will  be  furnished 
and  fitted  with  the  most  modern  conveniences.  In  addition  to  the  usual  hot  and 
cold  water  supply  to  each  private  bathroom,  every  guest  chamber  will  have  filtered 
ice  water  piped  to  it  for  drinking  purposes. 

That  the  construction  of  such  an  enormous  hotel  upon  this  site  is  warranted 
will  be  evident  when  it  is  understood  that  four  hundred  railway  trains  enter  and 
leave  the  Grand  Central  Terminal  daily,  carrying  one  hundred  thousand  passengers. 
Four  hundred  and  seventy-three  local  and  four  hundred  and  ninety-one  subway 
express  trains  bring  75,415  passengers  each  day  to  the  Grand  Central  railway  station. 
Besides  this  vast  amount  of  traffic,  there  are  the  more  than  a  hundred  thousand 
passengers  carried  by  the  nine  hundred  daily  surface  trolley  cars  on  Lexington  Avenue, 
the  eight  hundred  Forty-second  Street  crosstown  cars,  both  of  which  lines  pass  the 
hotel  site,  and  the  more  than  a  thousand  Madison  and  Fourth  Avenue  cars.

Calendar  of  High  Class  Sports 

In  New  York  and  Vicinity 

From  June  to  November  30,  1917,  Inclusive 


THE  love  of  sport  is  the  root  of  all  cheerfulness.  When  we  plan  for  a  day's  outing,  for  par- 
ticipation in  some  favored  recreation,  or  gather  as  spectators  to  witness  sports  afield,  we 
la>'  aside  our  business  cares  and  our  domestic  worries,  forget  our  personal  aches  and  pains, 
and  go  forth  with  light  hearts  and  gleeful  anticipations.  And  in  these  highly  civilized  times 
all  tastes  and  desires  in  games  and  contests  can  be  satisfied,  for  there  is  a  very  wide  range  of  choice. 

Automobile  races  and  aeroplane  flights  provide  thrills  that  our  ancestors  knew  not  of.  The 
swiftest  sports  they  had  were  horse  races  under  saddle  and  in  harness.  Today  we  may  see  mechani- 
cal man-made  monsters  whiz  around  steeply  banked  tracks  or  flit  through  the  air  at  speeds  exceeding 
one  hundred  miles  an  hour. 

The  horse  has  been  out-speeded,  out-distanced.  But  he  is  not  therefore  despised,  nor  even  for- 
gotten. There  are  still  horse  lovers,  there  are  still  horse  races,  and  there  are  still  many  thousands  of 
spectators  who  flock  to  race  courses  to  witness  contests  of  speed  between  thoroughbreds. 

From  very  small  beginnings  the  gasoline  launch  has  developed,  within  something  less  than  a 
quarter  of  a  century,  into  the  speediest  thing  that  moves  over  the  surface  of  the  water,  almost  rival- 
ling ice-boats  in  swiftness. 

In  and  about  New  York  there  are  fifty  or  more  golf  and  country  clubs,  practically  all  having 
eighteen-hole  courses,  and  some  of  them  being  rated  among  the  most  famous  links  in  the  country. 
Their  memberships  are  large,  and  their  facilities  are  even  larger.  All  are  equipped  with  commodious 
club  houses,  and  all  offer  playing  privileges  to  visiting  golfers  from  distant  clubs  whose  home  club 
credentials  afford  them  a  proper  introduction. 

Of  the  other  strictly  amateur  sports  to  be  found  in  and  about  New  York,  the  leaders  are  polo, 
yachting,  rowing,  college  and  athletic  association  baseball,  college  football,  lacrosse,  cricket  and 
tennis. 

Because  of  the  many  rivers,  bays  and  arms  of  the  sea  surrounding  it  New  York  is  splendidly 
situated  for  water  sports  and,  as  a  result,  it  has  a  large  number  of  boats,  yacht  and  motor  boat  clubs, 
the  activities  of  which  afYord  a  long  series  of  attractive  entertainments. 

There  are  no  better  roads  anywhere  than  in  the  vicinity  of  New  York,  and  particularly  on  Long 
Island;  and  auto  trips  in  every  direction  are  among  the  many  excellent  forms  of  recreation  aftorded 
by  the  American  metropolis. 

In  the  following  pages  will  be  found  a  list  of  high  class  sporting  events  taking  place  in  New  York 
and  vicinity  during  the  open  season  of  1917,  between  June  1  and  December  1.  The  dates  and  details 
of  these  events  have  been  obtained  from  authentic  sources  and  have  been  carefully  compiled.  It 
sometimes  happens,  however,  that  circumstances,  unforeseen  at  the  time  a  season's  schedule  is  made 
up,  necessitate  changes  of  date  or  even  the  abandonment  of  certain  events.  This,  of  course,  cannot 
be  guarded  against,  and  any  published  schedule  which  covers  an  extended  period  is  subject  to 
changes  without  notice. 

For  reasons  above  stated  the  publishers  of  this  calendar  are  unable  to  accept  any  responsi- 
bility for  changes  that  may  be  discovered  in  the  dates  of  included  events.  These  were  correct 
originally  and  presumably  they  remain  so,  but  if  it  is  desired  to  depend  upon  them  absolutely,  the 
date  should  be  verified  by  communication  with  the  club  or  association  controlling  the  e\  ent.

(NOTE — The  present  warlike  preparations  in  this  country  are  exerting  a  repressing  effect  upon  outdoor  sports.  Many 
scheduled  events  have  been  indefi,nitely  postponed,  and  others  abandoned  altogether.  This  is  particularly  true  of  inter-col- 
legiate matches  and  the  more  active  athletic  contests.  Yachting  may  be  interdicted.  Purely  local  sports,  however,  and  the 
leading  events  in  golf,  tennis,  horse  racing  and  similar  amusements,  are  not  likely  to  be  interfered  with.)

THE  BILTMORE'S 

DRAPERIES   AND  HANGINGS 


NOT  the  least  of  the  beauties  which 
contribute  to  the  satisfying  effect  of 
the  Biltmore  s  interior  is  the  artistic 
nature    of    the    well-chosen  hangings. 
This  is  conceded  by  authorities  on  in- 
terior decorations. 

It  gives  us  pleasure  to  claim  our  share 
of  the  honors  due  on  that  score.  The 
Biltmore  s  gorgeous  ball  room  is  hung 
with  Orinoka  Silk  Brocade;  the  main 
restaurant  with  Orinoka  Silk  Brocatelle ; 
the  new  supper  room  with  Peacock 
Pattern  Brocade.  The  bedroom  draperies 
and  bureau  mats  are  Orinoka  Sunfast 
goods.  To  those  who  are  unfamiliar 
with  these  fabrics  we  would  suggest  an 
inspection  of  this  magnificent  hotel  as  a 
fine  example  of  the  possibilities  for  un- 
usual beauty,  original  and  harmonious 
effects  obtained  by  the  consistent  use 
of  Orinoka  Guaranteed  Sunfast  drap- 
eries. 

As^  to  be  shown  them  at  your  merchant's  or 
send  for  our  free  booklet,  "Draping  the  Home."

HOTEL  LENOX 

BOSTON 

A  well  appointed  Hotel  possesses  its  own  individuality.  There  is  the  material 
comfort  expressed  in  the  building  itself  —  its  fireproof  construction  —  its  fine 
furnishings  —  its  select  appointments. 

To  the  material  must  be  added  the  indefinable.  Its  atmosphere  of  culture  and 
refinefnent  which  suggests  "home"  to  every  guest.  Then  the  service  which 
is  so  attentive  that  it  never  intrudes.  A  courtesy  that  reflects  a  living,  ever- 
present  welcome  from  a  well-trained  organization. 

These  are  the  attributes  which  have  given  the  Hotel  Lenox  that  valued  re- 
pute—  the  praise  of  every  guest  who  honors  the  Lenox  hospitality. 

The  Lenox  is  convenie7itIy  located  to  the  Social, 
Theatrical  and  Shopping  districts  of  Boston.

"Specialized  Service  means  Multiplied  Satisfaction."  This 
policy  dominates  the  house  of  Franklin  Simon  &  Co.  Aside 
from  Specialized  Service,  the  one  other  dominant  note  of  the 
"Thirty-Two  Shops"  is  eternal  newness — to  show  the  things 
that  are  coming  rather  than  the  things  that  are  going;  to  be 
a  step  ahead  of  the  mode,  to  show  the  styles  of  To-morrow 
rather  than  of  To-day.

SEYMOUR  DURST 

Noblesse  Oblige 

THE  curtain  falls,  but  it  falls  only  to  rise  elsewhere.  Its 
fall  terminates  only  one  episode  of  an  evening — an  even- 
ing that  is  but  one  seem^mt  of  a  closely-packed  day — 
a  day  that  is  no  fuller  than  other  days  of  a  social  season. 

The  end  of  the  play  is  but  the  beginning  of  the  ball,  even 
as  the  beginning  of  the  play  was   he  end  of  but  the  dinner. 

The  scene  changes,  the  dramatis  personae  remain  the 
same.    Unity  of  place  is  violated ,  but  unity  of  time  preserved . 

Dinner  follows  tea,  chronologically,  but  thirty  miles  are 
not  merely  supposed  to  elapse.    They  do  elapse. 

-  /Use  addresses  that  formerly  read  East  Fifty-Third 
Street  now  read* Long  Island.  Fifty-Seventh  Street  stretches 
from  Bernardsville  to  Southampton.  Fifth  Avenue  includes 
Mount  Kisco.  Meadowbrook,  Piping  Ro,k  and  S'eepy 
Hollow  are  at  the  doorstep.  Tuxedo,  Lenox  and  Newport

movemt  Its  of  planets  within  range  of  their  telescopic  vision, 
so  this  enlarging  of  the  social  map  reveals  the  presence  at  the 
outer  gates  of  a  motor  car  in  which  sheer  mechanical  depen- 
dability has  been  expressed  in  lines  of  beauty  and  clothed  in 
the  outward  seeming  of  smartness. 

That  motor  car  is  the  Pierce-Arrow. 
1 1  is  the  shuttle  of  this  gorgeous  Jacquaid  loom,  v/eaving 
the  brilli'dnt  and  gold-flecked  fabric  of  social  life,  plyii.g  busily 


to  and  fro  as  the  pattern  demands,  never  breaking  a  thread  or 
dropping  a  stitch.  It  has  become  one  of  the  glorified  tools 
by  which  social  life  is  achieved.  It  has  been  absorbed  into 
that  kaleidoscopic  background  across  which  social  life  moves 
as  a  brilliant  spectacle — a  background  of  ballrooms  and 
restaurants  and  country  clubs,  of  gowns  and  jewels  and  ser- 
vants, of  yachts  and  fox  hunts  and  house  boats,  of  pictures 
and  furriture  and  sunken  gardens.  Its  puipose  is  utility, 
but  a  rare  and  exotic  utility.  Because  it  has  been  able  to 
withdraw  attention  from  its  faithful  service  by  the  very 
faithfulness  of  that  service,  it  has  been  able  to  qualify  in  those 
finer  and  more  subtle  ways  for  a  finer  and  more  subtle  prestige, 
social  recognition. 

When  a  man  of  means  and  taste  is  able  to  add  to  his  col- 
lection a  Van  Dj'ck  he  does  not  thereby  enhance  Van  Dyck. 
Instead,  he  is  expressing  his  conviction  that  his  art  gallery 
lacks  a  certain  disnnction  which  only  Van  Dyck  can  give. 
His  position  as  a  man  of  taste  and  means  demands  Van  Dyck, 
just  as  it  has  demanded  at  times  Chippenc'ale,  or  Gobelin, 
or  the  Metropolitan  Club,  or  the  grand  tier,  or  vioux  Cham- 
bertin,  or  Jekyl  Island,  or  Locust  Valley. 

By  the  sound  progress  of  art  resting  securely  upon  utility 
all  the  great  things  of  the  world  have  beer  produced.  In 
this  spirit  the  creation  of  everji  part — always  creation,  never 
imitation — finding  the  car's  own  reason  for  development 
within  itself — has  produced  the
